A dark, lonely figure is endlessly tapping his device in a desolate, time-broken Nordic urban landscape. A collection of moss at a nightclub laboratory are watching themselves on huge mobile screens. The tapper and the mosses dances a glitch between realities moving at different speeds.

The title
wOwls in the mOss is a mashup of the Scandinavian proverb “there are owls in the moss”, an expression to indicate that something’s not as it should. There is something suspicious going on.

Visitors can interact and explore a surreal sonic fauna, and build particle-cloud soundscapes of moss. The installation is battery-powered, one-time only and finishes when devices runs out of power. The mosses are returned to their habitats after the exhibit.
